Avon Park’s Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) Board unanimously approved an approximately 490-foot extension to The Mall’s pathway at its meeting last week.
This extension would connect the pathway in the area of Donaldson Park and City Hall between Verona Avenue and Delaney Avenue.
Currently, the pathway roughly stretches from the Avon Park Community Center to Bill Owens Auto Repair or around 0.5 mile.
This project is part of the CRA’s efforts to beautify downtown Avon Park and bridge a “critical gap” in the area’s “pedestrian network” while supporting future tourism and events.
